Poor Doreen: A Fishy Tale (Hardcover)

Description

An Ample Roundy Fish called Mrs. Doreen Randolph-Potts is on a mission: to visit her second cousin twice removed who's just welcomed 157 babies. But when she spies what she thinks is a yummy dragonfly and is actually bait poor Doreen is lifted out of the water on a fishing pole. Luckily, Doreen is, shall we say, a wee bit clueless about the dire situation. Kids will love being in on the joke as our oblivious heroine arrives, in a roundabout way, at her final destination. Sally Lloyd-Jones, author of the "New York Times" bestseller" How to Be A Baby, " and acclaimed illustrator Alexandra Boiger bring the world of a fish to vibrant, funny life.
